Throughout these last four years, the number of Americans in poverty have grown grossly, while the number of illegal immigrants in the workforce has grown simultaneously. This is a problem that needs to be repaired for this great nation if we want to treat our citizens fairly and fix the economic problems we have.
Illegal immigrants in the workforce do not pay taxes, thus they stand in the way of an economic recovery. If more people were working and paying taxes, there would not even be a need for raising taxes and Americans would not have to pay the burden of losing more of their annual income.
As long as there is a perfectly good American citizen in poverty, illegal immigrants should not have a place in the United States workforce.
